專家說明

cf. A. Ziffer (ed.), Bruno Paul Deutsche Raumkunst und Architektur zwischen Jugendstil und Moderne, Munich, 1992, pp. 221-222 for an illustration of a similar cabinet of this model with a variant inlay on the front door, p. 300.

A similar model of the present cabinet was originally designed by Bruno Paul for the hall of Ernst Leitz's house in Wetzlar in 1915/17. The front of the two cabinets bear a variant inlay.

This lot is accompanied by a report from Dr. Alfred Ziffer, editor of the book Bruno Paul Deutsche Raumkunst und Architektur zwischen Jungendstil und Moderne.
